It's a...


Yes, another son! 
This is good since Hannah is so cute she will now have two brothers to defend her : )

We were very thankful that at the 15 week ultrasound the subchorionic hemorrhage was completely GONE! Praise the Lord!! Thank you to those who prayed for us : ) 

Baby Bump has started!
16 weeks now : )

In other baby news...
My nephews are ADORABLE!

I'm pretty sure Hannah thinks they are just baby dolls 

It's been a HOT month here in Memphis

So we put on our shades...

...and have spent a lot of time in the water!

Drinking from the hose

Puddle splashing

Hanging out at our neighbors pool...

Which is a little bigger than our pool

Popsicle break!!!

...and back to the water : )

We delivered a pineapple and popsicles to some new neighbors : )

We have also found ways to take refuge inside when the heat index is in the 100's!
Frank made an awesome cardboard box house for the kids

They have loved decorating and playing in it this month!

Hannah is getting the hang of building blocks
She did this tower without any help

I took my mom to the Peabody Hotel's High Tea while she was in town.
We had a GREAT time and I would highly recommend it!

Mimi swim school

After just an hour he was swimming back and forth between the shallow and deep end without help

Benjamin's first snow cone

Hannah looks like she is working hard (playing a game) on Mimi's iPad 
This is a treat our kids look forward to when she visits : ) 

8hrs of digging to put in a drainage pipe

Frank finished the stone patio...it's BEAUTIFUL!

Now that our patio is finished we can have picnics in the back yard
Thanks hun!

Four ducks now live in our backyard

Now to tackle finishing the inside of the guest house

My good friends Christinann and Michelle took me on a surprise girls' trip to Nashville

For my big 3...0...
(Side note - What is Elvis doing in Nashville?!)

We might be a little excited to be without kiddos for a weekend : )

One of the best treats was leisurely eating my meals. 
Seems like a simple thing...but not to this mama!

Benjamin has nailed down his first three catechism Q&A from the Truth and Grace memory book! This is one way we are building a foundation on the Word of God for his future. 
It's exciting to watch him learn. Check out this book - Book Link
(The paper chain our beach count down)

We got to have dinner with some dear friends while they were passing through Memphis. Nathan and Rene, together with their three girls serve on the UNC-Charlotte campus with Campus Crusade for Christ. They have a sincere heart to expose international students to the Gospel and equip those who want to know more. We know they are faithful with their time and resources so we have supported their ministry for several years and would invite you to pray and consider supporting them too. Your support allows them to continue their ministry of evangelism and discipleship of the next generation. You can give at the following link give.cru.org/0546978 
If you are interested, watch this video below from a recent conference that features Shweta, one of the student leaders on their campus.
